  • What John Wants To Eat Today

    After a long absence, I am back!  I was reminded again that I hate moving and never want to do it again.  It got so bad that I threw out my deep fryer because I didn’t want to dispose of the oil.  Oh well.  Here’s what I want to eat today…

    Deviled Eggs.

    I was at my buddy’s going away party this past weekend and someone was kind enough to make two giant platters of these.  I ended up having 11 of them.  Here’s how I make my deviled eggs.

    Ingredients:

    • 6 hard-boiled eggs
    • 2 Tbsp minced sweet onion
    • 2 tsp sweet pickle relish, minced
    • 1 Tbsp mayonnaise
    • 2 tsp creamed horseradish sauce (found in deli section)
    • 2 tsp yellow mustard
    • Salt to taste
    • I always add some paprika on top but you can make your eggs fancy by adding olives, chives, parsley, or pimento.

    Directions:

    Slice the hardboiled eggs in half and remove the yolks.  Put the yolks into a bowl and mash until crumbly.  Add the sweet onion, pickle relish, mayo, horseradish sauce, mustard, and salt to taste.  Mix until everything is combined and creamy.

    You can pipe or use a spoon to return the yolk mixture into the egg white halves.  Garnish with what I listed above and serve.

  • Where are the Updates???

    I am in the process of moving, so I apologize for the slowness.  I should have regular updates coming starting tomorrow or Wednesday.  I don’t even have a kitchen, damnit!

  • Follow Up: Vince

    Not exactly food related, but I did a post on Vince, the ShamWow and Slap Chop guy a few weeks ago and felt that I should update you on what he’s up to these days — punching prostitutes.

    ShamWow pitchman Vince Shlomi (i had his last name wrong, oops) was arrested last month on felony battery charges for allegedly punching a stripper, according to the Web site TheSmokingGun.com.

    Police reports obtained by the site claim that Shlomi met 26-year-old prostitute Lenea Harris at a Miami nightclub, and subsequently brought her back to his room at Setai Hotel. Shlomi allegedly paid Harris $1,000 for “straight sex.”

    That’s went things took a turn.

    Shlomi told police “that he kissed [Harris] when all of a sudden [Harris] bit his tongue and would not let go,” according to the report.

    Shlomi then punched Harris several times until she released his tongue, and then ran to the lobby to call police. Harris suffered several cuts and fractures to her face.
